Sea Urchin for Breakfast.


That's my buddy, "Captain A." holding the sea urchin. He drove us to Northern Cebu and arranged the boat ride. Salamat pre!


During the swim in the ocean, the fisherman caught some sea urchin. "The ovaries, called corals or roe, are culinary delicacies in many parts of the world." Yes...I tried it. It tasted like raw oysters.

Jump!



I've never jumped out of a fisherman's boat into to the ocean. I have to admit that I was a little nervous at first. The water was crystal clear, the sun was out, Tavi and KC had already jumped and who knew when I would get another chance to do this. There's nothing better than a morning swim in the ocean. It was easy jumping in but not so easy climbing back in the boat.

Here's some Graffiti Art I saw leaving Manila on our way to Batangas.

Filipino Sound System!



This is a Filipino sound system in Cebu. It reminds me of a Jamaican sound system.
